Chapter 2128: Chapter 1701: Creation of All Things, 1,000-Year-Old Ancient Tree (Double Chapter)
“Wan’er, don’t ss around. Now is not the ti to talk about this. I can’t let my mission fail, right?”
Su Ran was cornered by the Creamy Youngster, feeling overwheld. The current mission was already confusing, and now another issue erged. Wasn’t this asking for trouble?
“Look at you, so timid, can’t even take a joke. Fine, I won’t tease you anymore.”
The Creamy Youngster chuckled softly, then shifted the topic back to the mission, “What you ntioned, ‘Everything is interdependent, words co from the heart,’ is indeed vague and unrelated to the mission. It’s quite difficult to find a breakthrough from there.”
“Wan’er, so what do you an…”
After Wan’er’s guidance, Su Ran was able to control his emotions and listened patiently.
“What we need to consider now is not the mission itself, but to start from the literal aning of these eight characters, like solving a riddle. Only then will there be a chance to break through.”
The Creamy Youngster analyzed earnestly. Of course, it was just her guess, and how effective it would be remained to be seen.
“A riddle?”
Su Ran’s eyes lit up. Why hadn’t he thought of that?!
He realized he was overly focused on the task, considering all clues based on removing the Sand Prison Mark, and ignoring the significance of the eight characters, which led him astray.
“Wan’er, do you have any thoughts about these characters?”
Su Ran felt Wan’er might have guessed sothing and hurriedly asked.
“Su the Talented, you shouldn’t ask this, you should ask yourself. With your knowledge, you should be able to see through the aning of these characters. You just haven’t realized it. Moreover, if I say sothing, it would only affect your judgnt. ‘Words co from the heart’ is ant for you, not .”
Unexpectedly, the Creamy Youngster didn’t answer but threw the ball back to him. Not until she hung up did he realize his previous behavior showed obvious lack of confidence and lazy thinking. Wan’er was right; this was a flaw that needed correcting!
This was a solo mission and required the awareness to complete it independently. Tasks he could accomplish himself but still relying on others made no sense.
After the call, Su Ran felt enlightened, removing distractions from his mind, leaving only these eight words: “Everything is interdependent, words co from the heart.”
“Words co from the heart” was easy to understand, so he set it aside. The aning of “Everything is interdependent” was more profound; that was the direction for the breakthrough.
Everything is interdependent…
What does the system want to convey?
Su Ran felt trapped in a dead-end, unable to find a way out, not even through the Sewers, and the crucial point was these four simple words contained deep philosophical implications, making him hesitant to conclude.
However.
At that mont, these characters burst with brilliant light, rushing towards Su Ran.
“Again?!”
Su Ran was prepared for this and quickly retreated, not wanting to end up like Brother Bei Diao, a manipulated walking corpse…
A corpse without flesh, only bones, if the system offered him a chance for flesh, he’d rather choose a thigh.
Those who understand, understand.
Luckily, Su Ran dodged swiftly, avoiding being tricked by these characters.
After the characters’ attack failed, they spun back, reducing in number, indirectly easing Su Ran’s task difficulty.
“Huh?”
Su Ran was puzzled seeing the quieting characters, as only three horizontal lines remained.
These lines could be used as vertical ones, narrowing the search considerably. However, there were still many possibilities, like “big,” “up,” “piece,” “dry,” “three,” “thousand,” “herb”…
With only one chance to choose, Su Ran hesitated to decide lightly.
Strange.
What’s the connection between these three horizontal lines and everything’s interdependence?
Su Ran pondered repeatedly.
Everything…
Interdependent and counteractive…
Wait!!!
With a sudden realization, Su Ran felt enlightened.
The Way generates one, one generates two, two generate three, three generate everything!!!
Everything is interdependent, three generate everything?!
Could the system’s key word for him be “three”?!
The breakthrough had finally appeared!
At this mont, Su Ran understood the principle: not seeing hope in a dead-end didn’t an it was over; turning around offered a way out!
Joyful, Su Ran eagerly raised his hand to touch these three characters.
But just then, his outstretched hand stopped.
“No!”
Looking at these three lines of equal length, Su Ran sensed sothing wrong.
It’s well-known that “three” is composed of two long lines and one short line, and if these sa-length lines ford “three,” the system might be mistaken, and he’d have no complaint.
In other words, this wasn’t the key word needed for the mission!
He was almost sure his thinking was too simplistic.
Then another question arose.
If “three” wasn’t the key word, what could it possibly be?
Su Ran contemplated briefly, and his eyes grew brighter.
The Way generates one, to generate everything!
The root of everything is the Way, and “one” is the most accurate answer!
